School Accident Claims
All schools have a legal duty of care towards their staff and students. Regardless of the legalities, most school authorities do take the utmost care to make sure that their premises are as safe as possible for their students, teachers, and parents. For parents, their child’s safety at school takes precedence over all else. If your child is injured in an accident at school because the school failed in their duty of care, you may have legal grounds to make a school accident claim for compensation for your child’s injuries.
What Types Of Accidents At School Could You Claim Compensation For?
You can file a school accident claim for any accident that resulted in your child getting ill or injured, provided that the accident was caused by the school’s negligence.
Due to their curious nature and lack of maturity, children are more prone to getting injured while going about their various activities. If your child was injured after bumping into another child in School Accident Claimthe class or while running round on the playground that may not be sufficient grounds to file a compensation claim.
These are some of the more common school-related accidents that may warrant a compensation claim.

Accidents On The School Playground
Accidents on the school playground are the most common cause of injuries that children suffer while at school. Not all of these injuries can be attributed to the school’s negligence. If your child was injured in an accidental fall while playing with friends that would typically be considered a genuine accident, with no one in particular at fault. However, if the injury was caused because of faulty or ill-maintained playground equipment or fixtures that do not have any safety measures in place, those are likely to be solid grounds to file an accident claim against the school for negligence.
Faulty Or Unsafe Equipment In The Classroom
Regular maintenance of equipment is paramount in a school environment. Furniture that is wobbly, frayed, or has sharp edges are all potential causes for accidents. If your child was cut by a frayed or sharp edge of a desk, or because their chair gave way, it could constitute negligence on part of the school, and you may be able to file a school accident claim for compensation.
Laboratories are another common setting for accidents among older children. You may be able to file a claim if your child was allowed to use laboratory equipment or chemicals that were not appropriate for their age. Allowing students to use the laboratory unsupervised is also a breach of a school’s legal duty of care.
